CHAPTER TWO
KIBA'S POV
I just made it inside before the bell rang, with my luck the teacher hadn't turned up yet. I scanned the classroom after a place to sit, and when my glance hit the backrow my breath hitched. At the back beside of the window looking out, was that guy. The guy that had runned me over ten minutes ago and made me drop all my books, wich almost had made me late. Now when I got a better look at him, I noticed he was really cute. He had blond hair with a bit of lenght making it ruffled with long bangs in the front hanging over his eyes, I couldn't see his eyes that well but I could see they were blue. Fuck, I've always had a thing for blue eyed blonds. If I get to know him, it won't end well. Someone with that face could never be single, c'mon look at him, he is gorgeous. Maybye I could get to know him, he could be a cool dude and-
"Yo, Kiba! Are you gonna stand there all day and stare? Come and sit down you idiot" truning my head I noticed Shika looking pretty pissed off, man I don't like him pissed off. Taking my bag of my shoulders with a sigh of relief, I sat down next to Shika and threw him a smile"what's up dude?" wiggling his brown looking curious at me"dude, what's up with you? Don't tell me you were drooling over the new guy?" I blushed, and looked over my shoulder to make sure 'blondie' didn't hear what Shika was saying. It would be to embarassing.
Turning back I realized he was looking rather smugly at me. "What?" He had started snikering at that"dude, you're blushing. And you are so diggin' the new kid, you should have seen him come in though, he was looking quite nervous" I was wondering why he was so nervous, he wasn't the kinda nervous people were at first day of school, and he looked terrifyed when he ran into me in the hallway. He was looking rather tensed now too.
"Oi, boke! Don't space out on me. You know he's gonna realize your oogling him?" shifting in my seat looking pissed at shika, the only thing that came out of my mouth was"Shut up!" he grinned"You know" he lowered his voice scootig over to me"you're still blushing" I punched him in the arm,"dude, seriously, fuck you"
"no thanks, dude" he was starting to tic me off"Would you just shut up!" at that moment the teacher, Sarutobi Asuma, came in catching up on my last sentence"language "
The class had ended, the way I found that out wasn't the bell ringing. It was Shika waking me up with a pounch to the stomach. I wiped sleep from my eyes, and tried to glare at him groggily. "What the fuck did you do that for?" it came out through clenched teeth. He looked at me not bothered at all, rather bored. "You didn't wake up when I flicked your head, I had to wake you up somehow" getting angry wouldn't get me anywhere, a couple of deep breaths Kiba, a couple of deep breaths. "Anyway, lets get going" I got up, following him out of the room. Casting a glance back I noticed the 'blondie' had already left.
Just as I got out of the room I was attacked by another certain 'blondie'. Who could've known a little girl could have that strenght. "KibaBABY, I've missed you so much. You didn't call me when you got home from your uncle's cabin!" she put pressure at the 'baby' for everyone to hear, I was positive she did. I had started to get sick of the screeching. Plastering on my best smile and gave her a quick peck. "Sorry about that hon', I forgot to call you. Too catched up in the packing" I hope she buyed that smile, because that was the best I could deliver at this point. Looking at her I saw that she was already pouting. "Anyway, I've to get to TenTen. She's already waiting for me" and with that she left. I breathed out a sigh of relief, and rubbed my stomach. It still hurt, and that Ino attacked me didn't help either.
"nice save dude, with the whole 'I was caught up in unpacking. Classy" he always had that dumbass smile glued to his face when it was something about Ino. He really enjoyed bothering me, it sucks that I care so much for that asshole of a bestfriend I got.
"aaaaanyway, let's go sit down somewhere. My belly hurts like a bitch you fucker" as always he had that dumb smile on his face, he agreed nonetheless.
I coulnd't remember that it actually was this many students to this school, did the school really have that many freshmens this year? Nudging me in the side with his elbow"So when are you gonna speak with Ino about the important stuff?" turning to him a bit confused about why he was asking about this now? "I thought about doing it at my place, but then she is most likely gonna kill me without any withnesses. So I figured a place where it is not gonna be too much or too little people, maybye a café. I don't know yet. Gotta figure it out soon, dunno how long I can manage this". He shrugged his shoulders in agreement, knowing him for a couple of years, I interpreted it as a 'feel ya' bro'. But with him, I could never be sure about what he was thinking.
The second period didn't exactly fly by you could say. It was excruciating, and who decided math to be so boring? What made the class even more boring, was that I didn't have second with a certain 'blondie'. I sighed outloud as I put all my books in the locker, I really needed to clean the house and find my backpack. I didn't see myself carrying all of my books for hand for the rest of the year. I fumbled the pack of Marlboro out of the back of my locker and put it in my front pocket. And if I now succed in ignoring Ino or TenTen I could maybye have a nice lunch.
I dropped by the already loaded cafeteria, Iand pushed through the growing crowd desperetly trying to buy a sandwich. Lucky me being liked by the cafeteria lady, she oversaw me sneaking in line and gave be a chicken-sandwich with bacon and waved me goodbye.
I ate the sandwich on the way outside tossing the wraper in the nearest bin. I made my way to the regular spot for my 'lunchbreak'. As I got closer I saw who had already occupied me regular place, it was the cute blonde. Now I only needed a good excuse to bother the said blonde.
"Hey dude!" A smile was brought to my lips as I made my way over to the there.
He started glancing my way as I got closer, I couldn't put a finger on the expression on his face, and it made me starting to have second thoughts about coming here. Was he displeased with me coming over, or was it my outfit? Ohgod, I've started sounding like a girl.
I was now hovering over him since he was seated on the ground with his back supported by the strain of the tree. He looked up with the cigarette hanging in the corner his mouth; he furrowed his eyebrows and looked pretty confused. "yo, could you be sweet and borrow me your lighter?" it was the best cover up I came up with on the spot; I actually had my good buddy 'zippo' in my backpocket. He fumbled with his pocket and pulled out a neon orange lighter and handed it over. It was quite exentric, I guess he liked the color. I brought the cancer stick to my lips and flicked it lit. I sat down beside him and inhaled deep on the cigarette. I turned my head and looked at him trying not to smile like a madman,"thanks dude" I handed over the bright colored lighter. He reached to grab it, and in a split second I could feel his fingertips brush lightly against my palm, even in that split second I could feel how cold he was. He started to stare at the ground like as if it was really interesting, I could also see the light blush dancing across his cheeks.
I didn't understand the action, why was he blushing? Was he emberassed of me sitting here? Should I leave? Or would it seem rude if I did?
As I snapped out of the daze I noticed I had started to kick ass in blowing smokerings, ouh that one was pretty good. I was staring at the smokerings dissapear into the air like as if I was in a trance.
I was started to get desparete, I hadn't heard his voice yet. I blurted out the first thing that came to mind desperate to strike a conversation. "so, I've never seen you here. Are you new or something?" He turned his head looking really confused at me. I looked him in the eyes, or atleast tried. His bangs were relly long; I wanted to see those emotions hiding behind them. He blushed"yeah, I'm new here and all." his voice was barely audible as he spoke. My nose frowned up and I could feel it in my stomach that I was worried, or I was still sore after Shika punching me. But I don't think it was the latter.
He glanced up at me, meeting my eyes. I smiled reassuringly, not sure for what but I wanted to see him smile. "I guess that's cool" I inhaled deep of the cancer stick, and looked off across the field. I war trying to avoid the edgy tension that was starting to form.
I looked at him through the corner of my eye, noticing he was having a problem lighting his cigarette because his hands were trembeling so bad. His breath was coming out ragged and short, and he had started so shake a little. I snatched the zippo out of my backpocket, not thinking about that I would blow my cover. I lit his cigarette and he inhaled deep, he calmed down and began to breathe more properly.
It looked like he was trying to say something, but I cut him to the case"hey, why are you so shaky? Your hands were shaking pretty bad. You alright?" he looked up at me in shock and I could see right through his smile he put on"yeah, I'm f-fine. Just nervous, since it's the first day of school and all." the stuttering didn't make his case better. I was starting to get curious and maybye a bit worried, I really wondered what was bothering him. I breathed out"I guess that make sense, it is a bit stressfull on this school. There are like three thousand students on the school" when I turned to look at him I saw he had closet his eyes shut hard, and he had started shaking even worse than before. His breath came out short and it sounded like he was going to start hyperventilating. I panicked, what was I going to do and why was this happining?
I didn't know what I was doing, but before I knew it I was sitting infront of him on my knees holding his shoulders with my hands trying to reassure myself I wouldn't loose him.
He opened his eyes but his pupil was still dilated, he looked at me and started to breathe normal. I didn't know what I was doing but I was rubbing his shoulders in a soothing manner. I could feel his shoulder slump down and he started to relax.
I saw he had regained to normal, so I sat back down before this got awkward. I breathed hevy out as my back hit the tree. I casted a quick glance at him seeing that he was looking distressed. Figuring starting a conversation again would be the best thing now. "Eey, blondie. I didn't catch your name?"
It looked like he was thinking about what to say.
"Dude, are you thinking about answering me or do I have to guess?" he looked at me a bit nervous, I just smiled at that. I couldn't stop the problem that was creaping on my lips, he looked cute with any kind of expression he had. He started blushing and I think he got even cuter. "Oh, sorry, I'm Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, third year" I stared at him now positive that it was the guy from first period. "sweet! We're in the same grade and shit. I hope we have classes together" he smiled nervously and glanced away.
I was about to say something but the bell cut me off. The sound of the bell caught his attention and he started to tense up. I got up and dusted my pants"ah, fuck. Well see you later Naruto, it was really nice to meet you" It actually was.
"It was nice to meet you too" he blushed at that and I think I was going to start blushing myself, he was so damn cute. I figured I shouldn't be late for class so I took it as my cue to leave. "I hope to see you around then" I threw him a wave as I walked away.
The rest of the school was a real pain in the ass. I would have most likely done something drastic in the fourth period if I hadn't had practicly every period together with my best bro. Shika really could be a lifesaver, well those days he did bother with coming to school that was.
But now it was all good, the school was over and Shika was crashing at my place tonight. So it would be a long night with Halo 3 and pizza.
"Dude, I guess were going straight to your place since I already have all I need for the night" I flashed him a grin as we reached the parkinglot. We headed straight to the only Dodge Ram 3500 in the parkinglot; it was my midnight blue baby. I reached for my keys in my pocket and got it out and started to spinn it around my fingers.
"Kiba, I hope this time we won't be interupted by your noisy girlfriend" I groanded, I was starting to belive it was Shika's hobby to complain about her. I had to adimt, she was rather noisy.
We had ended up talking alot of bullshit infront of the car; I spaced out when I noticed blondie get into his car. And what a nice car that was! He was riding a Chevy Impala '68, it was a sweet car. I saw him get into the car and-
"YO KIBA, WOULD YOU STOP SPACING OUT ON ME YOU BOKE!" he was waving his hand infront of me almost hitting my face. I grabbed his hand and grunted annoyed, was it me or was he impatient today?
"Yeah what ever dude, let's just get going" he only shrugged and jumped into the passenger seat.
I got in and twisted the ignition, giving a pleasing sound. I stepped on the gas and headed home.
It had already started pouring when we got home; as we got out of the car we were getting drenched imideatly.
As we got out of the car we almost runned towards the sitter that were located in the ground floor under the house I was renting, we ran around the house down the little hill towards the basement floor. The door was located on the backside under the terrace from the first floor. I quickly unlocked the door and got in, Shikamaru came right in my heals, locking the door. "I say dibs on showering first" the bastard"just you be quick you fucker, and no jerking off in my shower!" he only grinned as he got into my bedroom getting his spare clothes he always kept here. I threw my hoodie, shirt and pants in the hamper that were located outside beside the bathroom door. I plopped down on the couch almost naked except my black boxers covering up my pride. Glancing around the combined livingroom and kitchen wondering how the fuck it could get so messy in such little space. There were laundry everywere, the dishes needed to be done and it needed some serious vacuming because the dog hair and dust bunnies were almost taking over. I didn't want to think about my bedroom. The place may need a serious cleaning up, and that was putting it nicely.
I whistled loud waiting for my 'little' companion, to come and keep me company. It was a few loud barks and then almost smotherd by the dog that came jumping up on the couch. I pushed him aside making him lay down next to me. "Akamaru, good to see you my boy" he barked in response"It wasn't that long you know, I guess you aren't used to school yet. But hey I'm home now" I started rubbing his belly getting a couple of satisfying sounds. I grabbed a cigarette that were laying on the coffetable and lit it with the nearest lighter I could find. Inhaling the smoke I pulled out my iPone and started texting Ino, this could never end well.
Shika came out of the bathroom in a pair of sweatpants and a towel he was drying his hair with. "if you're done cuddling your dog, I was just going to say the shower is free. And don't be so long, there isn't much hotwater left, sorry about that anyway" he waved his hand in an apologetic manner and sat down on the couch.
"You fucker, why do you always use all of MY hotwater you fucker" I got up from the couch and made my way towards the bathroom throwing my boxer in the hamper"and don't forget to order pizza now you asshole, I think I put the wallet on the counter" I got a mumble in response as I shut the bathroom door.
The water was cold; it was like having hail coming out of the shower head hitting my back like needles. I muttered fucker under my breath as I massaged shampo into my scalp. I repeted the act acuple of times getting totally clean, I rinsed a last time turned of the water and stepped out of the shower. As I dried myself I looked into the mirror seeing I needed to shave, I was looking like a man from the woods. It was maybye a bit of exagerating, but I did need to shave.
I got out of the shower clean and smelling aftershave. I heared a door shut and I saw shika coming in with a pizza setting it down on the coffetable. "Just in time, I'm starving" he glanced at me looking displeased"Atleast put some pants on berfor you dig in dude" I guess he was refering to the towel around my waist. Getting the hint I made my way to the room on the quest to find pants.
I came out dressed in dark denim shorts that went down to my knees and a black hoodie. I sat down on the couch next to shika almost ontop of Akamaru. I grabbed the xbox controller and shika started the game.
The round finished and shown that I had won"that's 10-7 to me shika, I crushed you tonight!" He grunted in response and muttered something under his breath like 'troublesome'. A loud yawn broke trough my lips and I wiped the tear that escaped from my eye. I threw a glance at the clock at the wall, I groaned as I got up from the couch and walked over to the TV and shut it off. "Time for bed, Shika" it came out like a mumbled yawn; opening my eyes after rubbing them I noticed shika had already fallen asleep on the couch with Akamaru. "those two are some serious weirdos" I threw the nearest blanket over them and retreated to my own bedroom.
Walking inside I didn't close the door completly shut if akamaru wanted to come in, hell he was the only one who shared my bed with me at the moment. I threw of my clothes and went to bed in my naked glory; I pulled the cover over myself and hugged the nearest pillow. I turned my phone on and saw eigthteen missed calls and seven rather furious textmessages. I browsed quick through them and sent a short reply
"come to my place at next thuesday, we have to talk" I pressed send and put it away on the nightstand and plugged in the charger, I sat the dogbone shaped alarmclock on six AM and put it back at the nightstand. The letters 03:04 AM lit up the room weekly green. I groaned of the thought of being grumpy and sleepy tomorrow, it was going to be a long day that was for sure. I rolled over on my back facing the cealing; I closed my eyes trying to get some sleep. It was going to be hard with certain 'blond' in my thoughts; I groaned and punched the wall in frustration.
A/N: The first three chapters are introduction chapters, just so you know. The story will be in both Naruto and Kiba's POV.
And I'm still an awkward turtle! But you know you like it that way, so this is how it's going to be!
